TONIGHT I'M GRATEFUL FOR ELECTRIC BUG ZAPPERS!! This giant jerk ran across my floor. I smashed the crap out of him and electrified a few of his legs. But he was still alive. So i dumped him in the toilet. And THIS #@&$&#& JUST CHILLS OUT ON TOP OF THE WATER.
What the heck. But don't worry. I flushed him.
*shudders*
I thought I was over spiders. Guess not. That guy was friggin huge.
So there was a meeting set up by this guy mark to celebrate 100 years of our neighborhood existing and a week ago he sent out a message on the facebook event saying resident crafters could come sell their stuff. Well I busted my tushie all week to get ready for it and dahm and i went. I only sold some soap to mark - who was very nice and funny and humble, even though he had basically started this movement to save old community things in our area. A bunch of people who grew up here talked about their lives as kids and growing up through the war there, and other people talked about the history of the old houses they had purchased and restored. The oldest one was built around 1890 - maybe minus a few years he said - by a man who worked for Teddy Roosevelt! I had a great time and met some nice people and some took my photo - so I'm hoping my tiny business will end up getting free advertising somewhere lol. We also built my glass top desk today. It was a nice day and i had fun.
Also - i managed to fit eeeeeeverything that i needed (besides my huge knife and cash box) for my table into my one wooden crate that i bought in cheyenne. I'm awesome.
The crazy face is a photo dahm took and said i should use for am ad about my bath salts X'D for the first few times i saw it i couldn't help laughing really hard. Lol it is my favorite thing.
Dahm and I bought each other fitbits for our dating anniversary this year and they have really been great to motivate me to walk and work out more and eat healthier. Since we bought them 12 days ago, I have walked 34.14 MILES! In 12 days! Before I wasn't walking nearly as much. It vibrates to remind me to get up and move if I stay still too long, and I can set goals on it and use my phone to log basically everything with my health. Plus it is a watch haha, so instead of going into my phone and logging everything myself, the fitbit keeps track of everything except my heart rate, blood oxygen content, and stress levels, which my phone does :). It really has helped Dahm and I prioritize walking together, which I have always liked. Pokemon Go helps too haha :) for the last two Saturdays, we went to seattle on the ferry and we walked 8 miles each time. The first time my legs and feet were really sore and stiff and the next day it felt like I had shin splints. But today I woke up feeling great, minus a tiny blister I got from a rock sticking in my shoe. We have also been going to parks and new places. It has been pretty cool, and I wasn't sure how well it would work for me, but it actually has been working really well and has been getting Dahm and I out walking and talking nearly every day, which is much better than being bored at home and getting on each other's nerves haha. I wish we could take ricky but it's still way way way too much for him to handle.
I've been planning on writing more often now but it seems like I always forget or lose track of time. I'll try to do better!
PS these are all my pokemon. I need to evolve a few, but I'm waiting to get more and use a lucky egg so I'll get 2x experience points :)
